I have a Base Class, called primitive Graphics. derived from this class are several different types of graphics, squares, rectangles, lines, etc. I am storing those graphics in an object that inherits collectionbase. This causes a problem because I cannot access any of the members in the derived class when they are added to the collection. Here is the default property for my primitivecollection class
[Code]...
My current workaround is to just put all of the public members in the base class, however this is starting to look ugly as I add more derived classes that need members available to the derived class only
using an object-binding I have a an object representing "Employee". The employee has an ID-property. The ID of the employee must be unique.
My validation of the entered data is handled in the property set part of the object. In general, I validate criteria belonging to the object to validate only (eg numeric range of the ID, if it's value is not empy, ...). But in this case I need to know all ID's from the other employees. My tried this:
''' <summary>
''' Set EmployeeID
''' </summary>

I need to Store Objects with Key like:
Key: <Fontname & FontSize> / Object: <Font Object>
Example content:
ArialRegular8 | <Corresponding Font Object>
ImpactItalic10 | <Corresponding Font Object>
TimesRomanRegular12 | <Corresponding Font Object>
These font types come from an external library, the real type is DocumentFont, I prefer not to store just values and recreate the font object later, so I need to store the object, and i want to be able to call Contains() later without looping. like for example Dictionary (of T Key, T Value), is this the best option? Also, to be able to call Contains(), i will have to overload function Contains() using an Interface or this is already built-in in some Collections / Dictionaries when using a String as Key?
I built a custom class and collection for the class for an app that I'm creating. What would be the best way for me to store it so that it will be available on the next startup of the app? It's a pretty simple class with a few strings, etc.

I have four classes, two are core classes and two are those core classes extended[code]...
This fails because es is of type, extSecurity and the base class expects a type of coreSecurity. I've not found anyway to cast this to allow for me to override this base class in C#. In VB it works just fine.
I need two seperate lists, which every item is Integer, String, Bitmap - and one which every item is Integer, String String. However I don't know how to do this, or even where to look - I've googled for custom objects and custom object lists. What I'm trying to do is this.Custom Object1 is Integer, String, Bitmap Custom Object2 is Integer, String, String
In one thread I'll be adding items to List1(Of Object1), and processing them, and adding the results to List2(Of Object2), however I need to be able from other threads to look at the list and say only give me the items where Integer = (my thread ID), is this possible? Any help, or even links to information that would be relevant to this request would be helpful?
I have a collection of populated custom business objects in my app which I'm going to insert into a SQL 2005 DB using a stored procedure. The collection size isn't massive, maybe 20-30 objects.Is there an elegant way to insert all of these objects into the DB in one go without doing something like the following?:
Open DB conn
For each item in collection ...
Set parameter values of SP from item.properties for SQLCmd

I have designed a small component I need to derive. The problem is one property from base class doesn't make sense in derived class, but won't hurts too (just it's ugly in property editor)
Now there is a solution to make that property non-derivable or hidden in derived objects?
my form displays locations and owners for a same product, the forms have a data grid view that actually takes in the details of the location and owner of that particular product. a product can have multiple owners and locations once its manufactured over time, the forms actually display this all i need is some kind of business logic that can actually manage the historical events of the location and the owner that when a user actually goes in and adds a new entry, the end date of the previous owner gets reduced to one less than the start date of the new owner. this in formation is stored in business layers called the owner collection and the location collection, i am not able to actually inherit or call the location or the owner collection class in the classes.

View 15 Repliesgetting the following error Unable to cast object of type 'System.Object[]' to type 'OrderService.webdirect_WebLinesRow[]'. On the line
webdirect(web_companyID, web_locationCode, web_customerNumber, web_orderNumber, web_orderReference, web_orderDate, webLinesArray.ToArray(), o_Company, o_LocationCode, o_CustomerNumber, o_OrderNumber, o_OrderStatus, o_OrdDescrip, webRespArray)

I do have a customized treeView which inherits from treeview and uses customized treenodes which inherit from treenode. It works, but each inherited method of the treeview using a treenode as a parameter forces me to do an explizit cast from treenode to my customized treenode to access the additional functionalitiy of my treenode class.
Is there a general way to avoid explizit casting all day long? E.g. telling my customized treeview that all it's properties, mehthods, etc. from now on are working with my customized treenodes instead the general treenode as default?
Turning off option strict is not an option because I want to keep this. Overriding each method, etc. is to cumbersome.
is possible to store a colletion into database field (ms sql server) is this case, the collection can contains different data types. What data type should be the database field ?
View 4 Replieswe have 3 classes:Class S, class A, class B / A and B inherits S.A has a property A1 and B has a property B1.we also have a collection of objects that has A and B objects.ex.
Dim c as Collection = new Collection
c.add(new A)
c.add(new B)
Now we want to make a general object that will read from the collection.
ex .
Dim obj as S
how can we cast obj in order to see properties A1 or B1 according to the class;
suppose I have a collection of objects of different classes (like controls in a form), and all of their classes have a MyMethod extension method. How do I have the appropriatemethod be called for each object, depending on its type?or example,

i've researched and written a generic class (all my objects are the same structure) and i'm was just working on the collection using a hash table but i've just read a comment within (url...) in this forum...that we shouldn't use hashtables at all with vs2008.i actually need and object collection that contains other object collections within them.the application i'm trying to write is relatively simple (but i'm new to vb.net)it keeps track of the time for weight lifting training/workouts.a workout consists of 'say' a bench press, military press, curls, dead lift, etc within the "bench" you have 1,2, or 3 sets (how many times you do "the bench", within a set you have 1,2,3 or 4 lifters, each lifter does reps.then it starts over with military press..i guess i could base it on a treeview type structure (with parent child type relationships) but i usually think in terms of collections it appears that a collectionbase has no key and i'd have to keep track of them on my own...

So I have a collection of Razzies created from a Collection of Bloops. I retrieve this collection using a Linq query. Reference:select-certain-properties-into-another-object for the query.I would like to know if it is possible to run a method on all of the newly created Razzies before returning the collection, or even right after, just without using a for-loop.
I tried ths:
Dim results = From item In bloops _
Select New Razzie() With _

View 1 RepliesI'm implementing a customized Graph algorithm in vb.net, and I'm having the following problem:
Supose the code:
dim col as new collection
dim myC as new system.collections.genericList(of myClass)
dim obj1 as new myClass
dim obj2 as new myClass
[code].....
'In the next statement, the myC2 inside col collection will be decreased to contain 'only obj1, like myC. I supose this is for myC and myC2 contains only a pointer to 'objects obj1 and obj2 as well col contains pointers to myC and myC2 myC.remove(obj2)'The problem is that I have to only copy myC to myC2, like a ByVal argument in a function,'instead a ByRef argument, in order to mantain a copy of objects in myC2 while these 'objects should be removed from myC. How should I do it?
Thought I had got this sorted earlier but unfortunately not. A property in a class is a collection of objects.

I have a question. I have a class of Cars that I need to display in a simpli-ish string if they will be sold or not base on their number.
[Code]...
I'd like to display a simple string like this:Cars to be sold: 1, 3-5, 7-8, 11, which is based of the .Sell value.Is there some kind of heuristic to create this kind of string in .NET or is it just a bunch of for/each and if/then and redimming of arrays?
I am trying to maintain a total for multiple collection objects in a class. When I create a new object, it resets the total to zero, only adding the current value being passed to the function. I have tried to use a static variable, create a second variable to hold the old total while adding the new value. The base class holds the total value, while the sub class creates the new object that holds information. I am passing the new value to a function in the base class adding the new value to the total when each new record is created.

i have a sql query that can bring back a large number of rows via a DataReader. Just now I query the DB transform the result set into a List(of ) and data bind the Grid to the List.This can result occasionally in a timeout due to the size of Dataset. I currently have a three teir setup where by the UI is acting on the List of objects in the business layer.
View 3 RepliesI have an object of type Dictionary(Of Int16, Polygon) and which contains sometimes up to 15 or so Polygons that i am creating bitmap files with the Polygon. This can take like 20 seconds sometimes so i was trying to pass the full Dictionary to background worker as an argument but i get an issue when trying to access each individual Polygon inside of the Dictionary because the Polygons still belong to the UI thread. How can I access the Polygons inside the Dictionary with the backgroundworker?
Dim worker As New BackgroundWorker
AddHandler worker.DoWork, AddressOf MeasurePolygons
AddHandler worker.RunWorkerCompleted, AddressOf WorkerCompleted
worker.RunWorkerAsync(PolygonCollection)
that is how im calling the thread. PolygonCollection is the Dictionary(Of Int16, Polygon) that contains all the polygons that i will be creating a bitmap file out of.
I'm having problems doing a sort of a custom collection. The collection is Device Classes which is a collection of Device Class. My sort does not produce an error but the treeview control shows nothing. I am not sure what I am missing. I'm guessing just a simple sort won't work here but I don't know what I'm missing in my code. Here's the code that creates the collection
[Code]...
Simply sorting the treeview will not work because it throws off the display of related info for a given device in listview controls. The collection itself needs to be sorted before the data is added to the treeview.
I was just curious as to whether after you have added all of the Parameters to the SQL Command Parameters Collection. Is there a convenient way to iterate or loop through the Parameters and make Assignments to the SQL Command Parameters Values Property?
View 2 RepliesI like the PHP way of doing things but, it seems I am stuck with using a Collection of Object's to store/retrieve the data I need. I have my Collection loaded with my Objects's and the code to iterate through the collection, my problem is I am unable to retrieve the "key" as it would be called in PHP (I believe in this case it is actually the name of the object).
Consider the following example:
Dim xDoc As XPathDocument = New XPathDocument(fName)
Dim xNav As XPathNavigator = xDoc.CreateNavigator()
Dim sender As XPathNodeIterator

As you can see, I am navigating an XML document, and creating an Object with some Key/Value pairs. The Object would look something like this if it were in JSON:
{"name":"John Smith","address1":"123 Anywhere St.","city":"This City","state":"FL"}
When I iterate though the Collection I can only get the value of the object, but I need the Key, in this instance I want "name","address1","city","state" to be stored in a variable for each iteration.
